Why I Decided To Get An HIV Test At Home September 15
I wondered about HIV and was worried because I had unprotected sex with someone who had multiple partners. I knew that the best chance for treating HIV was to treat it before it turned into AIDS. Not all HIV cases turn to AIDS, which can be deadly if untreated. There is treatment for HIV that works. I did not want to go to my regular doctor for the test so I decided that the best way to test for this disease was to do an at home test.
The test was easy and confidential. I got my results in a matter of days. I was fortunate that the results were negative for HIV. I urge anyone who is sexually active to take and HIV test. Had my results been positive, I could have been spreading the disease further and endangering not only my health, but the health of others.
